ChowMeng, Sungei Buloh is not such a hot place. There is no public bus to that park on weekdays, only on Sundays. A lot of us do not have cars, and we are not that well off to take cabs unless its on a sharing basis. Can I suggest an alternate place, like Kent Ridge Park where there is a sort of tree top walk, but much more people-friendly. This place is kinder to old folks like us, unlike the MacRitchie Treetop.
As for travelling, I will be going to Fraser’s Hill in early February. Why not take this opportunity to get our members to join in. I am sure it can be easily arranged.
Ann & Chow Meng,
Count me in for your Kent Ridge Park Walk. I have read about it but have not had the opportunity to walk the route. Sunday or Sat afternoon , sunset walk should be alright with me. Thanks.
charles wee.
Thx Chow Weng (not chow meng) for the excellent idea.
I have been to S Buloh many times with U students for studies on Ecology.
I think there is a bus from the MRT station but S Buloh is quite a far off place and it is not shady to walk on those boards.
You can perhaps plan it as a social outing with request for a guide but not practical for regular walking.
I am not sure about Kent Ridge Park. Have not been there.
MacRitchie has a seasoned walking track(Shady – short and long route available)
3.30 to 4.30pm on Sat seems a good time.
Perhaps you varied the venue once the group is formed.
I will give my support.
